new project: 6 speed swap
All I used....not a complete list, but it was all I needed.
Differs from what tranny you use.
FOr w58:
clutch pedal, master, slave, tranny, clutch , flywheel, TO bearing, shifter assembly manual tunnel (not needed) I just cut mine and put sheetmetal over it. I have pics of how much needed to be cut for a 6 speed) hardlines for master to slave.
THats pretty much it. Manual ecu and harness isn't needed. you want reverse lights right?

Oh? Seems like the factory engineers who put this magnificant engine together thought it was necessary, here is why:
Per MKIV.com: - "The 6-spd Supra TT uses a tension damper on the drive belt system, with each hard shift, the drive belt tensioner spring vibrates, it gets to the point were it will be bouncing back and forth from the spring reaction under heavy load shifting, this tends to make the drive belt slip off the accessories pulley's, adding this tension damper system will damp the movement of the drive belt tensioner."
Perhaps you'll get by for a while, but it sounds like a bad place to skimp on a $150 part given "this tends to make the drive belt slip off the accessories pulley."

"The SC300 shares the same engine (2JZ-GE) as the Naturally Aspirated (NA) JZA80/MKIV Supra (1993-2000), therefore engine build kits and aftermarket parts for the Supra NA are interchangeable with the SC300. The Supra Twin Turbo's (TT) Getrag V160 6-speed manual transmission is also capable of being transplanted into the SC300 for improved drivetrain efficiency." per http://www.intellexual.net/faq.html
These cars, particularly the NA Supra and SC300 are close to mechanical twins under different sheet metal.

That document is a great resource. I was one of the first people to ever see it since I know the author.

hey guys sorry i havent replied ive been out of town at a car show. but i appreciate all the info im still really deciding what i want to do ..... i dont know if im ready to be without my car for a long amount of time again .... 6speed would be much funner to drive but auto would be faster for drag..... this thread has turned out to be very informative .. i still havent had a chance to read all of it haha
People who see your car and are dissapointed your car is an auto are idiots. Just because they see crazy jdm shifting in drift videos or fast and the furious, doesn't mean they are gods. Do not change your car because some moron isn't satisfied by your auto.
maybe he's a fan of shifting manually, and maybe drag racing bores him to death, and im sure he's not looking into drifting.
I know im new.. but i hate seeing stupid useless space and time consuming posts.
